While marijuana can have certain medicinal benefits for adults, studies have shown that it may be detrimental to a teen's brain development. Additionally, it can pose a safety risk to very young children. If you keep marijuana in the house, medication storage best practice is to make sure it's stored safely in order to help protect your kids from experimentation, or worse.
